Since i *hate* parts of the new FF theme (2.0 Beta2 was much nicer) I am using GrayModern
I use:
- IETab - Use IE to render some pages
- FasterFox - Speed up Firefox, you need to hack it for 2.0 compatibility
- UnPlug - Get embedded media off the web, better than VideoDownloader
- FEBE - Save your settings, rebuild your themes into Jars and your extensions to XPI's for backup
- infoRSS - Neat RSS Reader thing
- PDF Downloader - Intercept PDF's
- NoScript - Whitelist JavaScript sources
- AdBlock Pro - No more ads, i use the EasyNet subscription
- ErrorZilla - special error pages, really useful
- Web Developer - Useful for the people in the name
